They have likely organised some kind of public outing or friendly get-together, only to be stood up/bailed on unexpectedly with no explanation.

Pronounced "Flake-ee" Urban Dictionary

Flaking is what a Nikos does when he make plans with his friends, yet fails to show up last minute. This usually includes the Nikos leaving his friends on read and not telling them about changed plans beforehand. Urban Dictionary

Somebody who almost never follows through on their word. A true flake will tell you they'll "Totally come" to an event that you put endless effort into organizing up until the day before, and then the day of the said event they're not showing up nor answering your calls or texts. These types of people are the masterminds at taking advantage of your kindness. Their constant flaking out not only succeeds in blatantly using you for your known kindness. No. When you see people flake on you, it makes you feel bad about yourself wondering what you did to make them do something like that. Flaking out subtly says "My time is more important than your time" or, better yet, "Your time don't mean shit to me." Flakes are unneeded negative energy in your life. It is recommended that you keep contact with these selfish pricks to a bare minimum, if at all. Urban Dictionary

Saying you're not going to do something and then ending up doing it at the last minute. Basically, the opposite of flaking out Urban Dictionary
